Sounds like you need a new Shari White edit! Featuring a host of Vans riders and no titles to help you navigate it! But it is a pretty sick video.
Hmm bit scared of unleashing the Jagger fury but can’t back down on this one.
Personal opinion of course, and this doesn’t relate at all to his personal life or any of that side of things- wish him all the best
But from a skate video standpoint, I wish he never returned and we just got the chocolate/girl footage and then nothing more.
Super stinking tricks
That said his trick selection in this wasn’t bad at all.
Just as a whole package. Modern Mariano is a no no
Edit: actually I retract it all. He’s always smiling and he’s living a good life. I can’t complain about that. It’s just such a world away from how cool he was before. If it was a random middle aged bloke that popped up out of nowhere and not Mariano I wouldn’t feel some kind of way about it. It’s just hard to look at him now, and compare it to him, then
Think I’ve reached my limit on watching these twee-core, crew focused skate videos. It’s a style I just can’t get into, which is a shame as I’m probably missing out of some good footage but I just can’t sit though them.
He’s had a software update
I’m picturing @Les_Zeppelin with an American accent, sitting at his Nike SB head office desk, red faced screaming into the ShaneGPT program on his desk top ‘FILTER ALL ALL-OVER PRINT TEES!!! FFS!!!’
I really liked Noah Nayef’s clips in the April video. Wasn’t familiar with him before. That 360 down the double set at the end of the vid was fucked. As was Dashawn’s fakie flip! Most impressive girl street clips i’ve seen in time too. Didn’t have a problem with Guy’s fits in the slightest
He had a pretty sick welcome to April part too.
Guy dresses like a Christian rap artist
hahaha
I chose the Lois vid over the rest haha
My dedication is clearly lacking!
I think writing him off entirely now is going a bit far, he definitely has looked awkward times and done a few stinking tricks but they’re only a small proportion in my opinion.
To rein in my lash, I bet if I watched all his footage continuously I would agree, but when I think of Mariano, my mind is immediately drawn to him doing a whizzy spin spin and no longer to a fakie frontside kickflip back crook to fakie (have I remembered that correctly?) on a bank to bench
Hahaha this is such an unhinged bizzare fit and I’m so into it in a ‘watch the world burn’ kinda way. Legend
Traveller vibes
How Dane Vaughn has managed to maintain a career as a professional skateboarder is such a mystery to me.
I’ve never seen him promoted by any brands other than DGK and he doesn’t seem to get much love from the skateboarding world at all.
Has he managed to Greg Lutzka it and get some lucrative non skate company endorsements?
Guy in fully flared is skateboardings best ever come back
Cardiel epically latered; ‘I felt a little tingle and I was like’ ‘it’s on’.
Brandon turner post prison zen yoga life.
Muska from TMZ racial-slur to chicken king.
Guy Mariano getting his front smith lazer flip on, yeee haw
Bold claim but I have enjoyed Spankys return far more than Guy’s. Feels more wholesome.
Fully agree. Spanky is the best. His shoes are great, too.
